PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This product is designed to pick up where other color-coded text evidence activities leave off. As students get older, they are using more and more of their evidence in their writing. They are expected to provide longer written answers. Still, we have reluctant writers in our classrooms. We have times when we need to give our upper elementary students a reminder about the importance of providing text evidence as support for their statements. I have used this activity as bell work, homework, and this year, I will be sending it home over our two long winter breaks in February and April so that students will keep those terrific text evidence-finding skills up to par! This particular packet will be the one I use to practice finding text evidence while introducing some fabulous nonfiction titles that our students will then be inspired to explore more deeply on their own (it's a win-win...see how that works?!). I have even used this activity to springboard my nonfiction reading unit. This packet highlights book synopses of 20 books your students may want to explore further (you will DEFINITELY want them to want to explore these books further), including: Weighty Words, What You Never Knew About Fingers, Forks, and Chopsticks, The Day-Glo Brothers, The Boy Who Invented TV , and many more.
Please message with any questions. Don't forget to leave feedback and earn your TPT credits...it's like free money!
